In 1995, he was brought back to Torpedo Zaporizhia, and after two seasons was sold to the Ukrainian giants FC Dynamo Kyiv.

In 1998, he was loaned out to FC Cherkasy, and had a good season there, scoring 11 goals in 18 league games. Kosyrin also spent a year playing in Israel with Maccabi Tel Aviv. He also spent two years with FC Arsenal Kyiv. In 2002, he was sold to the newly promoted FC Chornomorets Odessa, where he finally established himself as a formidable player. Kosyrin had a good three-year spell with the team, becoming the league leading scorer in the 2004–05 season. He formed a strong partnership with Kostantyn Balabanov. In 2005, he was sold to FC Metalurh Donetsk where he continued his good scoring form. On 19 June 2008 he made his return to Odessa by signing a two-year contract with Chornomorets.[2] In the summer of 2010, when his contract expired, he joined FC Dniester Ovidiopol in the Ukrainian First League.
